James had withstood the poison for almost three hours straight. According to Noah, he would be exposed to the poison many times over the next 21 days, and even if he didn''t know what the outcome would be, he was sure that it would benefit him.


    However, James wanted to reach the 20th floor, he was filled with great hope and excitement.


    After all, there were abilities he could get from Chronos, and the fact that Chronos had a special window where he could watch him at all times, or that the old man had a definite reason for coming to James'' side, made it all the better.

    Of course, he couldn''t go down from the 75th floor, that was the deal after all, the only reason James thought that way was because Chronos was time itself, which meant that Chronos could somehow create a lower time zone and keep James training going.


    "Ready, James?"


    James suddenly heard this question along with a hissing sound coming from his right side and then he asked, albeit fearfully:


    "Ready for what?"


    James knew very clearly what the answer would be when he asked this question and he was waiting for the answer in a very unpleasant way.


    "I''m going to increase the level of the poison, this level can knock a Wyvern down and knock it unconscious in seconds, be prepared," Noah replied.


    At Noah''s question, James began to breathe deeply and shook his head, "Don''t hold back, Mr Snake!" he said sarcastically.


    Noah smiled involuntarily at these words, and then the liquid in the cauldron began to change.


    The whole of Olympus was in a state of stress, of course, the fact that Nyx was influencing the test due to someone like Ra exercising his authority had saved James'' life, but that still didn''t mean that James couldn''t be paralysed.


    There were only a few poison masters in this tower, to be exact only 10 of them existed and Cain the High Arch-Elf was one of them. Of course, millions of gods used poison, but none of them were like the first three.


    In first place was Cain the High Arch-Elf, and in second place was Noah the Devourer. The man in the third place was now forgotten, the only thing remembered about him was that he had a high degree of closeness with Thanatos and Loki and only two of them knew where he was.


    All of which meant that the poisons Noah was going to administer to James were going to be far too dangerous, and even Nyx''s palms were sweating with stress as these words were spoken or these concerns made themselves known.


    After all, even Nyx could not affect this tower created by her father in such a way, yes, maybe in places where death was not necessary, just like in Noah''s test, but there would be places where even Nyx would have no effect.


    For example, areas such as the [Conscience of the Clouds] on the 40th floor or the [Slaughter Pit] on the 90th floor were places that Nyx could not affect.


    The Conscience of the Clouds would test the hearts of users and players and show their true colours to everyone on that floor. Blue clouds existed for the good-hearted and red clouds existed for the bad-hearted. If a bad-hearted person stepped on the blue clouds, they would either fall from the clouds or be teleported to the red clouds, it all depended on luck.


    So it was a test of reality for them to be seen from the point of their so called comrades.


    The Slaughter Pit, on the other hand, was a place where the gods constantly fought it was seen as the floor where the game of the gods, or more accurately, the war of the gods began. The 80th floor became a completely lawless place after the gods made a pact on the 75th floor, and the floor was completely changed after an offer was made to the consciousness of the tower.


    The test of the floor was to be victorious in the battle in the gigantic arena or to collect items to pass the floor, just like any other floor.


    "Then start James, this poison is three times stronger than the other one, be careful not to faint and if you can, try to use your aura despite all the poison in your body, you will surely improve." Noah suddenly said, helping James.


    "Understood!" said James, and with that he tried to use his aura again, along with the immense pain from his burning skin.


    However, no matter how hard he tried, nothing changed. It was as if his aura was being blocked by the poison. James could realise that even his magic rings were filled with poison, and he could even feel his magic in a tiny way.


    So it was normal that he could not recognise his aura when the poison was coursing through the veins his aura was based on.


    Nevertheless, James kept trying, constantly trying to feel the aura in his body and trying to push his luck.


    Each time he tried he seemed to feel a different kind of poison entering his body, or rather his body was burning differently and his pores were hurting in different ways, it was a strange and painful sensation indeed.


    He began to sweat unbelievably, occasionally his skin would break off and heal because of the automatic healing, and his skin would vanish into dust in the poison.


    The sight was incredibly disgusting, but the onlookers still chose not to look away.


    Noah was incredibly shocked, wondering how James was holding up so well.


    "You''re holding up much better than I thought young man, did you have something to do with the poison?" Noah suddenly asked.


    James thought he couldn''t speak as he struggled to hold on and continued to breathe deeply, but eventually, he managed to open his mouth and say, "I have an ability that protects me from 100 low-level poisons."


    Noah''s surprise was evident in his expression, even if he was a snake. He seemed to have a lot to say, and what he wanted to teach seemed to be even more than what he had to say.
